The transubstantiation of drool.

by John

From a New York Times write-up of another abstinence-only curriculum relying, like Free Teens USA, on spit:

On the tape, a half-dozen teenagers chew cheese snacks, then spit into glasses of water. The dirty water represents bodily fluids, which the teenagers share by pouring their water into one another’s glasses. Before long, the class echoed with exclamations of disgust. Another point the film makes: the murky water, even if passed through a strainer, can never be clean again.
